seven rice varieties (hassani, deilmani, sepidrod, shahpasand, saleh, neda, and irfaon215) along with their complete diallel progenies were grown in a randomized complete block design of three replications in the growing seasons of 2006 and 2007 and were evaluated for the quantitative traits of: number of days to flowering, flag leaf length, width and area, plant height, panicle length, extrusi...

We quantitatively evaluated the effects of elevated concentration of ozone (O3) on growth, leaf chemistry, gas exchange, grain yield, and grain quality relative to carbonfiltered air (CF) by means of meta-analysis of published data. Our database consisted of 53 peer-reviewed studies published between 1980 and 2007, taking into account wheat type, O3 fumigation method, rooting environment, O3 co...

salinity problem is continuously increasing in the arid and semi-arid regions of iran. to effectively utilize germplasm resources in breeding, it is necessary to characterize and evaluate genotypes for the desirable traits and as well for salinity tolerance. salinity tolerance of 80 wheat landraces from different parts of iran was studied in two steps. at first, the degree of salnity tolerance ...

in order to determine the critical period of weed control and investigation the effect of periodical control and interference of weeds natural population on yield and yield components of winter canola (brassica napus l. cv. okapi) in west region of tehran an experiment was carried out at research field of tarbiat modarres university, tehran, iran on 2004-5 growing season. fourteen experimental ...

to estimate the optimum and effective amount of nitrogen fertilizer for quantity and quality improvement of three new durum wheat lines, this research was conducted in gachsaran dry-land agricultural research station for a duration of 4 years (2003-2007). the study was performed as a factorial expriment, using a randomized complete block design with 4 replications. two factors of: 4 nitrogen ra...

line s-80-18 (deberia) a spring bread wheat line with pedigree of hd160/5/tob/cno/23854/3/nai60//tit/son64/4/lr/son64 was selected from the high temperature wheat yield trial, received from cimmyt and evaluated at zabol research station in 1994-95 cropping season. as a superior line, it was advanced to the preliminary yield trial at zabol station in 1995-96 cropping season. due to high grain yi...

The objective of this study was to examine the impact of starter nitrogen fertilizer on soybean root activity, leaf photosynthesis, grain yield and their relationship. To achieve this objective, field experiments were conducted in 2013 and 2014, using a randomized complete block design, with three replications. Nitrogen was applied at planting at rates of 0, 25, 50, and 75 kg N ha-1. In both ye...
